IMTS 2022 Conference: How to Automate Dimensional Gauging on the Production Floor

About the presentation

This session provides attendees with an overview of how to automate quality inspection and dimensional gaging with collaborative robots. We’ll provide best practices for getting started with automation, particularly for small-medium manufacturers that have limited automation experience. Learning objectives for this session include:

• Getting started with quality control (QC) automation
• Best practices for implementing collaborative robots in a quality department
• Robot video demonstrations with automated gaging
• Automation with existing shop floor gage
• Building a business case and return on investment for implementing automated inspection tools
• Industry trends in automation
